Elements for Beginners
to Know
What is SEO?
A company known in the world of SEO is Moz,
which defines SEO as “a set of practices
designed to improve the appearance and
positioning of web pages in organic search
results.
Unlock success with proven tips and leverage
top-notch SEO Company in India to optimize
your online presence. Stay ahead in the digital
landscape by implementing cutting-edge
techniques for increased visibility and
sustainable growth.
How Does SEO Work & Why Is It Important?
There are entire textbooks (or maybe eBooks in this case) that detail how exactly SEO works,
how to cater to its preferences, and why it’s critical for anyone with a website. At a higher level,
SEO can be broken down like this:
Nearly all online traffic is driven by search engines (think Google, Bing, etc.).
1.
Search engines populate both organic and paid results based on dynamic algorithms that
crawl the internet looking for the most relevant results to the query.
2.
SEO utilizes things like keywords, internal and external links, and optimized content to help
search engines find content and rank websites higher on search engine results pages (SERPs).
3.
Types of SEO: On-Page SEO vs. Off-Page SEO
On-page SEO: As the name suggests, on-page SEO
analyzes what the page (and your website) are about.
On-page SEO strategy focuses on optimizing the
content hosted on your website, so things like your title
tags, page content, site speed, and more.
Off-page SEO: This involves everything that is not on
your website. Off-page SEO determines how
authoritative your content is, which is typically achieved
through backlinks from other websites. Backlinks are
links from an outside website back to your site.
SEO Strategy Basics
Every SEO specialist has slightly different
recommendations for what your SEO strategy should
include. Neil Patel, a New York Times bestselling author and
widely renowned digital marketing expert, recommends
that everyone include the following elements in a
successful SEO strategy:
Understand user intent: Craft your content with the
understanding of the searcher’s end goal so you can
help them accomplish their goal.
Develop a customer avatar: Audience, audience,
audience. Any SEO strategist starts by learning
more about who your readers are, what they like,
what they dislike, and why they’re there.
Core Elements of SEO
The audience, sometimes referred
to as the target audience is “a
group of consumers
characterized by behavior and
specific demographics.
As you move into the world of digital marketing and SEO, people will start throwing around
terms and phrases that you don’t understand. With all that jargon, it helps to have a quick
glossary of SEO elements and terms. Here are some of the most common:
Audience: Searcher Intent: Keywords:
This term is used interchangeably
with user intent and audience
intent, and it refers to the purpose
of an online search.
Keywords are “any search term
entered into Google (or another
search engine) that has a results
page where websites are listed.
Meta descriptions get a bit more into the technical aspect of
search engines, but they greatly influence SERPs. Meta
descriptions are “an HTML element that provides a brief summary
of a web page.
Meta Description:

Content:
Backlinks are sometimes referred to as inbound and incoming
links, and they are part of any off-page SEO strategy. Backlinks are
created when one website links back to another — in the case of
improving SEO, you want to have as many backlinks as you can.
Backlinks:
Site
Architecture:
Site architecture is “the hierarchical structure of
your website pages. This structure is reflected
through internal linking. Your website’s structure
should help users easily find information and
help search engine crawlers understand the
relationship between different pages.”
Site Speed:
Just as it sounds, site speed is “how quickly users
are able to see and interact with content.” As
we’ve mentioned before, the path between the
user and your content needs to be as direct as
possible, and speed plays an important role. If
your site is slow to load, loads in stages or returns
a 404 message (this is the worst case scenario),
search engines will ding you for that.

7. Target “People Also Ask” and FAQ Sections
Another tip on how to increase organic traffic for your site is targeting “People Also Ask” and FAQ
sections to directly address related user questions. Adding FAQ sections to your pages can
increase your ranking power because it gives you an additional opportunity to target relevant
keywords and answer user queries that may have yet to be addressed in your page’s previous
content.
